This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 37 development cycle.
Changing version to 37.
Comment 2 Mikolaj Izdebski 2023-02-03 11:28:41 UTC 
Circular dependencies are common among Java packages and are not an issue.
There is nothing we can do about this, sorry.
Comment 3 Marián Konček 2023-02-03 11:40:33 UTC 
In fact, circular dependencies are the reason for creation of https://github.com/fedora-java/javapackages-bootstrap project which is used to build maven and its dependencies in Fedora.
